Hire A Wedding Consultant

Why a Wedding Planner?    Save money – Many brides have a notion that hiring a wedding planner is just another expense on their already over-stretched budget. What they don’t realize is that a wedding planner can actually save you money! There are 3 reasons for this: 1) A wedding planner can often negotiate a cheaper price for brides, because a vendor knows that a planner will utilize their services more than once. 2) A wedding planner will keep you within your budget. 3) Wedding planners are creative people with a wider range of connections. They can get wedding items at a cheaper rate. Save time – It is estimated that the average wedding takes over 200 hours to plan. Not only does the wedding planner take some of this time, she also diminishes it. A wedding planner already has connections with other vendors, can save time by avoiding common wedding pitfalls, and already knows a lot of the information that a bride would have to spend time researching. Save relationships – Lets face it, although a wedding is supposed to be the happiest day of your life, it is also very stressful to plan! This stress often causes many disagreements not only with couples but also with family members and friends.  A wedding planner not only knows how to get out of tough situations, she can also act as a buffer between the bride and her family/loved ones. Furthermore, as an etiquette expert, she can prevent hurt feelings before they are made. Save research – There are countless questions that arise over the course of the wedding. From what vendors are best to what the etiquette is for invitations, wedding planners know what works and what doesn’t.  They work with the bride to get her exactly what she’s looking for. Save dreams – Most brides have been dreaming of their wedding day since they were a little girl, only to discover that their dreams cannot be reached.  A wedding planner not only has a creative mind, but she also knows vendors, budget-saving tricks, and where to find some “lost” treasures. Save the day –Wedding planners are experienced at making detailed itineraries for everyone involved in the wedding, including the vendors. They are also there to make sure that everything happens on time. Furthermore, wedding planners work behind the scenes from way before the rehearsal ever takes place to the very end of the reception, taking care of (and often preventing) mishaps, and ensuring that everything runs smoothly! Save quality - Although any good vendor will perform their best for you out of decency, it’s only natural that the bar is raised just a little higher when a wedding planner is involved. The vendor knows that if he does well, a wedding planner will not only give him a glowing review, but also give him repeat business, and therefore performs top-notch to receive that business. Save SANITY – No matter how you try to prevent it, most big events end up dealing with a crisis. What bride wants to deal with problems with the florist, the baker, or even the weather on her wedding day? Wedding planners know how to handle unforeseen problems, leaving the bride free to enjoy her wedding day and her guests. Keira Groom – Made for you Weddings, Rigby, ID  208-403-2662
